# Keyboard animated icon

Typing makes text. Light: the three top keys tap down in turn, left to right, and with each tap a line of text above the keyboard writes on one more step; the line fades once the word is typed. Strong: deeper, quicker taps, then the space bar thumps down with a bounce, and the typed line lifts away as it fades. The keyboard body never moves.
